| Hi,
Well.. I guess I knew that my Melusine wouldn't be a Melusine..second year I bought one..last year it was Misty and this year I'm not sure whether it is Charisma or Temptation. It doesn't really look like any of my others, (Charisma or Temptation) but I'm sure it's one of them..which do you think..(??)I'd like to at least label it correctly and save the Melusine tag for another try next year..any guesses??..thanks....Donna

| Donna, 'Melusine' is no longer in production so short of having a guessing game every year it really isn't worth much to get one. I'm not sure why these places keep on selling these things knowing they're gone.. |

| Phooey. Sure looks like the beautiful 'Charisma' to me, too. Here's mine the last time it bloomed, for comparison.

| Thanks folks, I guess I'll change her name tag to Charisma # 3!! Actually Grant, your beautiful picture of Charisma looks more like my Temptation (last year).. not trying to confuse the issue..but I found my Temptation (like your picture above) to be more on the Raspberry side of red whereas Charisma is more on the orangey side...

Alana, Hi! I guess we've had this discussion before, and I'd forgotten..I just refreshed my memory and THIS is the Melusine picture that was on the tag of the bulb I bought..I don't know what yours is, it's very pretty, but I don't think it's Melusine..Noni's is the one that I like, even though I don't think she liked it!! I guess I knew it was out of production but I was hoping for maybe a RvR or at the worst, Magic Green...(not another Charisma!!) I know Kristi is first on the list for an RvR, but I'd like to be second if anyone out there has one that likes to set offsets...or gets one in a mislabel..that they don't want...
Brent and Becky is offering Magic Green, I don't suppose anyone has ordered one of theirs?? I was hoping maybe it would be an RVR....  Thanks, Donna |
Here is a link that might be useful: Will the real Melusine please stand up??

| Alana, You plant is 'Rebecca'. RVR is no longer in production either as with 'Melusine'. 'Magic Green' is still being produced which is the lesser of the three!! |

| Ya know, I remembered right after I posted that pic that Blanca had told me my Melusine was really Rebecca. Sorry about that! I do know that my RVR is true though... Alana |
